Document Summary

Rhodophyta: chl a phycobilins, sulfonated polymers (agar caragreenan, floridean starch, zygotic and sporic meiosis, the multicellular protists are all related to algae but not very closely related. Rhodophyta: they generate large quantities of sulfonated polymers like agar, the starch that is store in rhodophyte is known as floridean starch and is similar but not identical to glycogen, because these things are multicellular- issues with sex. Engages in two types of sexual activity- zygotic and sporic. There is another type that is usually used known as the gametic: zygotic meiosis- simplest of the forms that exist. The two organisms will be haploid and there will be a transient stage that will undergo meiosis that will regenerate the haploid form. 2 haploids fuse together to form a diploid form and then that undergoes meiosis quickly to regenerate the haploid form and will go on to become multicellular organisms. Multicellular is haploid and the diploid form is unicellular.
